Come on out guys. It's the kick off to the season.
I'll be doing some pre-riding for it (which consisted of snow riding last year) and it's one of my favourite rides of the year
The ODSC is really stepping up this year and starting to become a nice club so come on out and support them.

Will likely go, and from Mississauga, but as of yet undecided about the big bike run or dirt bike run... I don't like mud that much, so it will depend on the weather between now and then.
Big bike route for the 690 will be OK I am trying to decide if I do bike bike with my 1190 or regular with my crf250x

I'm debating the same thing... I think I would have more fun on the DRZ, but I much prefer drier trails in July than deep greasy mud pits in April.
Corpse... basically the Bethany is two rides in one. The big bike track does a gravel route and a few no-maintenance road allowances and the most you'll run into is a slight mud puddle or a bit of sand. If it is like the run I followed with Supernam last fall, you could likely do it with mostly street tires.
The dirt track goes into the Ganny, but I think it occasionally hits a road or two, so I am not sure if your CR250 would meet the licensing requirements. Once ODSC has the details finalized, I'll post up whatever they present.

The bike needs a blue plate for either route. I will probably ride the crf and play in the mud or maybe even bring the wife's klx as it is better on the road sections but worse in the dirt.

This was Post road, and probably the most muddy part of the ride. I washed mud off my valve cover, just to give an idea of how deep it got. It was an optional challenge section that should be skipped

I rode my Husky CR250 last year that I race in enduro's and hate scrambles. As long as the bike is blue plated it'll be fine.
I just bought a KLX 250 that'll be riding this year though.
I'm pretty sure it was Post Rd that was taken off last year because of resident issues. During one of the pre-rides a local farmer came out complaining to use about using it. Although it is a public "road", the ODSC decided to remove it from the route.
